The select cabal who believe in an eschaton they're actively trying to bring about, as well.
replyWould you apply this reasoning to the proliferation of nuclear weapons?
replyedit: why is the parent rationale sensible for AI and not nuclear technology?
Absurd and incomparable.

reply"Why is the wheel not okay to gatekeep but the nuclear bomb is?" Even the framing is manipulative from the beginning. By asking this question you're already assuming they're in any way comparable. They are not even remotely equivalent and the entire comparison is utterly absurd.
replyAI is more like a nuke than a wheel. Do you disagree? Can you suggest a less manipulative framing? I am personally a proponent of open source AI and models but I found this cabal framing strange when we do indeed rely on this kind of control for other world-altering technologies. And AI is different in that it enables technological development in ways quite unlike the wheel in a general sense.
replyDude ChatGPT is not the equivalent of a device that can level a major city killing millions in a flash. It is self evident. This entire discussion is ridiculous.
replyNuclear weapons are a wholly unique threat to mankind.
